Blue Exorcist -The Blue Night Saga- (2025) s01e05 Episode Script

More Important Than the Body

All I know is how to become strong,
bear a child, and die.
I don't know any other way to live.
I don't know how I should live anymore.
So…
This is fine.
I thought I could throw you
into an orphanage and be done with it.
But that bastard Mephisto…
"Take care of her
until there's an opening."
What am I supposed to do?
Are we going to be together forever?
Just until a spot opens up.
I'll make you my disciple.
But try not to get in my way.
Okay, darling.
I'm free now?
But how do I live, Shiro?
Ms. Shura, Father is calling for you.
I'm busy right now.
I think it would be better for you
if you went to see him.
Excuse me.
Lame little Fraidy Cat.
I hear you've been hanging around
with a bunch of muscleheads.
You should respect yourself more.
Rumors are spreading.
Excuse me?! This is all because
you didn't want to be my partner!
That again? Give me a break.
You say that, but…
Here, you can touch them.
Hey, stop it.
That woman is gone now.
So it's okay, right?
Shura, you should live a proper life.
You've got a good ten years left.
Become an Exorcist to make a living.
Soon enough you'll be too old
for the cram school and dorms.
What's your problem?
Now you feel like being a teacher
and lecturing me?
You've changed, Shiro.
Is it because you're raising her child?
Of course not.
It's because I'm getting old.
The older you get,
the more you want to lecture youngsters.
Even though you neglected me…
Stop it!
I don't want to see you
getting old and weak!
Live a proper life? Don't make me laugh!
I'm gonna die anyway, so what's the point?
I should just do whatever I want!
I don't even know why I'm alive.
Don't make things difficult for me.
You're the one making things difficult.
Eat, sleep, work,
make friends, start a family,
raise kids, grow old,
and fear death.
You just need to keep doing that
until you die.
You have to live, Shura.
Just live. That's all.
Can I…
really just live?
These flames!
Rin!
The Exorcist Brothers Rin and Yukio
are here!
Honestly, I'm not sure this'll work
on something this big,
but I'll push myself to the limit.
So, Shura, find the strength to come back!
Satan Bomb…
Exorcist scum!
…Campfire!
So warm.
His control is already perfect.
You've really grown, Rin.
Another awful technique name.
Shura thought of that one.
Shura.
Next, do the exploding one.
Let's call it Satan Bomb.
That's so lame!
Next, the stab and burn one.
Seriously, give me a break.
Oh, I've got an idea.
Satan Campfire.
Stop it!
Making up moves is embarrassing enough.
Don't give them random names!
Why don't you think of something cool
with kanji in it?
You can't even read kanji.
I can!
But use kanji that have few strokes.
Look, coming up with moves has meaning.
Naming the moves you've been using
will make it easy for you to call them.
That's what a technique is.
Once you're able to connect the names
with the moves in your head,
you'll have more control over your flames.
SATAN CAMPFIRE
SATAN BOMB
It's the same as an Aria chanting
a death verse.
It helps them concentrate
on killing demons.
And for that, a simple name is better.
Especially for someone like you.
Sorry for calling them random.
You've put a lot of thought into it.
Not at all. The names really were random.
That's what I thought!
Don't sweat it.
I'll keep drilling you
till your body remembers the techniques.
Shura…
Shura, come back!
Tatsuko.
Where are you going, Tatsuko?
Hachiro… Sorry.
I really can't…
Tatsuko? Are you betraying us?
Tatsuko!
We will not allow this!
Your hair, body,
arms, legs, teeth, eyes, nails…
All of them belong to us!
Hachirotaro is regenerating
faster than your flames can damage him.
Big Brother!
I can't. Not enough firepower.
Ms. Shura!
There she is!
Ms. Kirigakure!
How could this have happened to you?
Shima, we need to save Shura and escape
before my brother's flames run out.
Summon Yamantaka and sever
those tongues holding Shura up.
What?! That sounds hard.
And what are you gonna do?
I'll catch her when she falls.
What?! No fair! I wanna do that.
I don't have physical abilities
like you or my brother.
Nor do I have contracts with demons.
So I'll cover you instead.
Big Brother, hold on for a bit longer!
Got it. Be careful.
You seem to be more confident than usual.
Aren't you always telling us
not to be reckless?
I hate her.
She has talent,
but she's not serious at all.
Don't be so narrow-minded.
She may look like that,
but she's still thoughtful on the inside.
I can't let her die.
What are they doing?
Stay back, you fools!
Are you worried?
Hachiro, don't!
Shima! Behind--
Shima!
Yukio! Shima!
Hachiro! Don't hurt them!
We have a debt to repay this one.
We'll kill him in front of you.
What?
Yukio!
Hachiro…
I've decided.
I don't need you anymore.
I'm going to live.
I'm done living like I'm already dead!
That's right.
This is the end, Hachiro!
No… No!
Tatsuko! Tatsuko!
You know what… She isn't Tatsuko.
She is Shura Kirigakure!
There are none who could understand…
this sorrow.
Those in the other world yearn for this.
They yearn for it, and yet…
They can never obtain it.
This sorrow…
No. They will understand eventually.
For those who exist
between the two worlds…
Those such as you…
It is inevitable.
Rin!
What happened to the snake?
Hachiro…
He… ran away?
Repeated physical destruction
and regeneration
may have degraded his intelligence.
I see.
Hey… Can we let him escape?
What?
It'll take time for him
to regain his original form.
And we'll be monitoring him anyway.
So just for a little while…
Hachiro.
It's still cold, but…
Eventually, spring will come.
With this…
you, too…
can be free.
Well, I got knocked away
and passed out for a bit.
My bad.
Okay. Yes, I'll talk to you later.
Everyone!
Shima! You all right?
Yeah, more or less.
What happened to Hachirotaro?
-We let him escape.
-What?
It'll be fine for the time being.
The Order will find him
and monitor him anyway.
Besides, he's tiny now.
That'll make him even harder to find!
So, where's Ms. Kirigakure?
First it was Bon,
now she's changed her hair too?
What happened?
Leave her be for a bit.
A lot of things happened at once.
She's probably still in shock.
Ms. Kirigakure…
God, what a relief!
Now there's nothing holding me back.
Time for a fresh start!
Even this hair makes me feel good.
That hairstyle suits you.
You mean because it's so boyish, right?
No. I mean it looks good.
You trying to be a playboy now?
And what was all that earlier?
"I'll treat you well," huh?
That was just…
You must be so experienced.
Maybe I'll take you up on that,
Mr. Playboy Four-Eyes.
Come on!
I'm saying that was all an act.
I apologized, didn't I?
And besides, I'm injured.
Oh, sorry, Mr. Playboy Four-Eyes!
Stop it!
What are you laughing about?
You're gonna be a Paladin, eh?
I'll gonna hold you to that.
What's the matter?
You're not regretting
all that big talk now, are you?
No.
Bring it on!
Rin.
Yukio.
Thank you.
This day would never have come
if it hadn't been for you two.
I'm glad.
This was our mission after all.
We just did what we had to.
Shiro…
If something were to happen to me,
could you teach the kid I'm looking after
how to use a sword?
You're the only one I can rely on.
Even though you neglected me
and were always so harsh…
This is Yukio.
My name is Yukio Okumura.
It's his first day
at Exorcist Cram School.
Take care of him for me.
I'm counting on you.
Why me? Why would I ever do that?
You know what kind of person I am!
Yeah.
I do know.
You always acted like
you could see right through me.
Did you even know somehow
that this day would come?
So annoying.
No fair! Hug me too!
Reinforcements!
You don't seem to have suffered
any internal injuries.
However, you have several fractures
in your left arm and ribs.
You need to go to the
emergency room for surgery.
Thank you.
Too bad, huh?
If Okumura had stabbed
Hachiro just a little later,
you would've had immortality
along with Hachirotaro's powers.
How long were you watching?
Quite a while.
I am a spy after all.
"I will do my utmost to impregnate her."
That was awesome.
I was so close to laughing
and exposing my position.
As I said, it was all an act.
Is that so?
You know what they say.
There's a kernel of truth in every lie.
What are you trying to say?
How scary.
At any rate, with those injuries,
you won't be able to do
any more of that suicide training.
He's the rat?
I warned you.
If you're gonna do all that,
find someone who can give you some advice,
for your own good.
Or you could just come over.
To the Illuminati.
Well, anyway, get well soon.
Yukio!
What happened to me?
You're finally awake.
Big Brother?
We're at True Cross General Hospital.
We used a key to come back.
They already did the surgery.
It'll take two months of rehabilitation
before you can move on your own.
Two months?
Treat it like a vacation
and get some rest.
And when you feel better, you can
go back to that training or whatever.
Here, have an Aomori apple.
Hang in there, Yukio.
Right.
I'll tell everyone that Yukio's alive.
Rin.
About Yukio back there…
Yeah? What about him?
No, never mind.
I wish we could have stayed
in Aomori a little longer.
It's fine for now, right?
I'm hopeless.
I'm so obsessed with myself
that I can't see around me.
You're weak.
And your heart isn't that strong.
I can't go on like this.
I need to broaden my vision.
